Sugar Daddy history

Ad from 1976This popular sucker was invented by Robert Welch in 1925 and was originally called the Papa Sucker. Various slogans were tried for the new caramel sucker and the one selected was "Of all the pop family, this is the Papa." 

The name changed around 1932 to Sugar Daddy which was a popular expression at the time. It suggested a wealth of sweetness. Below is a magazine ad from 1976 which includes the Sugar Mama (1965) and Sugar Baby (1935). Sugar Baby is still available but the Sugar Mamas (chocolate covered Sugar Daddies) were discontinued in the 80s.

Some of you may remember giant Sugar Daddies made as a promotion for the Billie Jean King - Bobby Riggs tennis match. It weighed 22 pounds. The makers of Sugar Daddies sponsored the tennis match billed as the "Battle of the Sexes" on Sept. 20, 1973. 

Sugar Daddy memories... My mother Emily is 73 years old and ever since I can remember (I'm 32) she has been eating sugar daddies. She has a ritual. Each night she settles in bed, watches tv, sets her hair in curlers, gets a romance novel and polishes off 1 a night. We have made fun of her several times for waking up the next morning with lollipop sticks stuck to her nightgown. We have caught her sleeping with one half eaten stuck to the roof of her mouth. ( Don't worry about tooth decay... she has false teeth and yes we definitely took a blackmail picture of that!)


Back in the late 70's, when I was 7 or 8 years old, my molars were taking a long time to come out. they'd get loose, but I couldn't extract them myself. so I bought a sugar daddy. I'd sink my teeth into it, wait a few seconds, and rip open my jaw! 9 out of 10 times there'd be a tooth stuck to it. it would also gross out other kids (especially the girls). ironically, I'd use the money I got for my tooth to buy more sugar daddies! unfortunately, sugar daddies are also good for accidentally extracting fillings, as I later found out. ~ Jason from New York


I love to get a SUGAR DADDY and a comic book... out to my front yard with a blanket under a big spreading tree. I would sit on that blanket - read and enjoy my SUGAR DADDY.

I was born when my Mom was 42 - Dad 45 and my brothers were in the service ---sister was married... so, I had to find ways of entertaining myself. I enjoyed my candy and reading... took a while to eat a SUGAR DADDY, so, that meant I could enjoy myself. Sometimes my best friend would join me... SUGAR DADDY, Comic book and fun time. Thanks ~ Sylvia from Tennessee


My daughter had a horse named Buddy, she would ride him down to the corner store, and I would have to give her enough money to buy two Sugar Daddy's, one for her and one for Buddy. He loved them, she would ride back to the house, eating hers and stopping every so often so Bud could take a bite of his. He expected one every time she went to the store, whether it was for them or something else. ~ Barbara from Florida
